  • 12 flour tortillas
  • green onions (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional)

Instructions

  • Place saute pan on high heat for 4 minutes. Sear short ribs on all sides, 4-5 minutes total.
  • Place short ribs, soy sauce, 1/4 cup of the vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, and gochujang into slow cooker. Cook on high for 4-6 hours.
